Doubts and questions about this subject came along with an authoritative announcement by the American Army, which announced that it was leaving Jasionka's sub-affiliate airport, a logistical hub for the Russian-warning Ukraine. Americans decision to another place in Poland, most likely Lublin.
This message coincided with the information of the American NBC News station, which reported that according to its sources The Pentagon is considering withdrawing 10,000 soldiers from Poland and Romania. That would be a much bigger story.

“This should be worrying”
Theoretically, these 2 informations do not have much in common due to the fact that the removal of Americans from Jasionka was confirmed last summertime at the NATO summit in Washington. It was known that the work for Jasionka would be taken over by another countries of the Alliance. Now the British and Norwegians are safe there.
However, these 2 issues, which are linked together, should make anxiety. Of course, the most crucial Polish officials, i.e. the Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister and the head of the MON, guarantee that they have no information about the Americans wanting to leave Poland.
Except it's not impossible to limit this military presence in our country. The problem is that you don't know where to put your ear, due to the fact that American officials frequently say something completely different.
Moving the U.S. into negotiations?
On the 1 hand, he was here any time ago, defence secretary Pete Hegseth, and assured that the Americans are not moving from Poland and that we are a large ally. However, he reportedly Donald Trump a fewer months ago during a gathering with an crucial European leader said that he had doubts whether American troops should be present in the east of Europe at all.
This subject will shortly origin any doubts and anxiety. Of course, it is hard to imagine that the Americans or the American military will leave Poland at all. But as shortly as I hear the restrictions on military personnel, it's not impossible. The Americans have over 80,000 soldiers in Europe and will most likely want to reduce this presence.
But if they want to carry out gestures against Russia, and there are negotiations going on all the time to halt fighting in Ukraine, then who knows if specified messages are to be part of the negotiations. But so far, it's just speculation.
